As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

Open Quote This School has ruined my daughter life. She was getting bullied for 3 years and the school said they did not consider it bullying. Her phone number was passed around the school and they called her fat and ugly almost everyday. The school called me one day to say she threaten to commit suicide i had to pick her up. My daughter ended up in wayside but the school still did not want to discuss the issues. My daughter has been un the day program 3 times and was admitted into the hospital for cutting herself. I ended up loosing my job and now almost my apartment. The fact that they have done nothing to help my child and they had no consequences really annoys me bc it going to keep happening to other kids. I called the superintendent and nothing still was done. Its to a point im really thinking about getting a lawyer. This school has ruined my child and my life Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
